After Reincarnating, the Ice-Cold Prince Won't Leave Me Alone
Chapter 399: Shenwu VillageChapter 399 God Wu Village
Xiuxiu stepped forward and took a closer look: "Hey, why is this stone shining!"
After finishing speaking, he reached out and took it. Shen Mingjiao couldn't stop it. Looking at the bright red on the stone, she shook her head slightly. Then he handed the stone back to Shen Mingjiao.
"I haven't seen it before. But it's so pretty!"
Shen Mingjiao looked at her in surprise, not caring about disappointment at all, "Do you have any discomfort, that is, do you feel dizzy when you stare at the stone..."
Xiuxiu shook her head honestly: "No!" After speaking, she stared at the stone seriously, and felt it seriously for a while: "Except for feeling a little dizzy, I don't feel dizzy!"
After speaking, she asked enthusiastically, "Is this a precious gem from your Central Plains?"
Shen Mingjiao took the stone and rubbed it back and forth in her hands: "No, I picked up this stone by accident. I heard that it came from your Miaojiang. I just happened to come here to do something, so I just asked."
He has already thought about it in his heart, ever since he saw this stone in Qishan, no matter who it is, even if the mind is as strong as Feng Lisheng, when he sees this stone, he will be affected by it and have hallucinations.
This was the first person who touched the stone without being affected except her.
Shen Mingjiao stuffed the stone into her hand again, "Take a closer look, do you have any other feelings?"
Xiuxiu played with it for a while, and smiled embarrassedly: "To tell you the truth, I feel that I have an inexplicable intimacy with this stone." After she finished speaking, she laughed first: "Haha! But this is normal, I have been I like shiny things."
Shen Mingjiao couldn't laugh, she thought of the inexplicable intimacy she felt when she saw this stone for the first time.
For a while, she has never believed in ghosts and gods, and she felt a little magical. Could it be that this stone is useless to the Miao people?
Xiuxiu didn't know what was going on in her heart, she held her chin and said to herself:
"But if you really want to inquire, you can ask Granny Chang in our village. She is the oldest and most respected old man in the village. She likes to tell funny stories to the younger generation."
Shen Mingjiao naturally has no objection: "Then trouble Xiuxiu."
Xiuxiu waved her hand indifferently, and continued to stare at the stone. "But Granny Chang's house is a bit out of the way, let Ah Niu take you there another day."
The two talked for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, Shen Mingjiao said goodbye and went back to her room to rest.
On the second day, the witch doctor came back and said: "I asked, the patriarch has never seen that kind of stone."
Shen Mingjiao said "Oh", "I want to meet your patriarch."
By Xiuxiu's reaction last night, she became more and more sure that this stone was related to the Miao people.
The witch doctor nodded indifferently: "I'll let the patriarch come to see you." After speaking, he planned to go back to the room.
Shen Mingjiao stopped him, and told the doctor Wu about Xiuxiu's reaction when she saw the stone last night: "Do you think your Miao blood is different from ours?"
After listening to the Wu Tai doctor, he suddenly regained his spirit: "What is the difference? The blood of people in the world can be divided into four types, which has nothing to do with race.
But what Madam said makes sense, I’ll get some blood from that girl right now…”
Shen Mingjiao hurriedly stopped the person: "There is no one who wants to take other people's blood. I tell you this because I want you to do some research with my blood."
Whilst speaking, he raised his wrist in response to the occasion, signaling him to smoke casually.
Inexplicably hypnotized, and familiar with those stones. Coupled with the rebirth, if you think about it carefully, there are quite a lot of strange things that happened to her. If it wasn't for ghosts and gods, it could only explain that her blood might be different from others.
But she just had the attitude of giving it a try, and didn't hold out much hope
…
As a medical idiot who is dedicated to research, Wu Taiyi is definitely not a person who speaks harshly.
Didn't care at all whether she would offend the princess, picked up a sterilized knife and slashed a certain part of her wrist with precision, pouring half a bowl of blood before stopping.
Shen Mingjiao gasped in pain as she clutched the bandaged wound, "I'm curious, Doctor Wu, you are so upright, how did you survive in the palace?"
The witch doctor carefully put her blood into a porcelain bottle and sealed it, as if treating some rare treasure. Hearing the words, he was very straightforward and immodest: "Because I am a genius who is both a doctor and a poisoner. Your Majesty needs to use the poison I made. I am not willing to use it." kill me."
Shen Mingjiao: "..." Why do you want to emphasize drug control? Is this a royal secret that I can hear?
Xiuxiu took Shen Mingjiao to the stilted building where the head of the Wu family village lived,
The chief shaman is a gentle-looking man in his fifties, and his eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to those of a shaman doctor.
When Shen Mingjiao came over, Patriarch Wu was turning over medicinal herbs. Hearing the movement, she put down the bamboo basket. Come here and perform a Miao etiquette.
"Madam, please. My cousin came over yesterday and said that Madam wants to live here for a while. I wonder if Caomin can help Madam?"
Obviously, the Wu Tai Physician came over yesterday and roughly revealed the identities of Shen Mingjiao and his party to him.
Shen Mingjiao waved her hands with a smile: "You are welcome, Patriarch Wu." She glanced at the herbs drying in the basket beside her:
"Hey, this is Tianma! It's still top grade, and the patriarch knows medicine?"
The Wu patriarch greeted his wife to tea, "How can the grassroots know any medical skills? They only know some simple preparations."
"That's not bad, these medicinal materials are in excellent condition, and should be sold at a good price."
Patriarch Wu shook his head: "Ma'am, I don't know, the mountains here are steep, and there are very few medicine merchants here. Most of the people who come here are timber merchants, and some timber merchants will bring some prepared medicines when they leave.
But young people are more willing to go hunting and logging in the mountains. Those of us who are old and have nothing to do, earn some hard money by the way! "
Wenshan City is rich in timber, which is also one of the main sources of income for the Miao people.
Shen Mingjiao glanced at the row of herbs on the shelf, there were Gastrodia elata, Cordyceps, Polygonum multiflorum, Chonglou, Dendrobium...
Almost all of them are precious medicinal materials on the outside, but in the mouth of the Wu patriarch, they are like vegetables and radishes that are worthless and sold by the way.
After thinking about it carefully, it becomes clear that the main reason is the terrain. Although these medicinal materials are precious, they are not unavailable in other places. Drug dealers can't afford to risk their lives over mountains and mountains. But many woods are only found in Wenshan.
Wanting to understand this, she said directly: "I heard that you have a lot of Panax notoginseng here, I can help you connect and sell the prepared Panax notoginseng to the army, the price will not treat you badly, I wonder if Patriarch Wu wants to do this business ?”
Last time, she overheard Feng Lisheng discussing with Feng Wu, saying that the typhoid medicine in the army was in short supply, but there were still people greedy for ink. Feng Lisheng dealt with a group of people, but couldn't find a suitable medicine source for a while, and Sanqi was such a It came out only a few years ago, and it is known as a holy medicine for healing. If it is used in the army, it can save many soldiers.
"However, I am only in charge of making connections, whether I can be selected? It depends on you."
Hearing the words, the patriarch Wu can be described as a thousand thanks. In the same sentence, no one will be against money. Besides, as the head of the clan, he naturally has to consider the livelihood of the village.
Next, Patriarch Wu and his wife treated Shen Mingjiao even more enthusiastically, almost answering every question.
"...Although I have never seen this kind of stone, I can ask people in several villages to ask each other."
"Then trouble the patriarch."
"Madam asked about Shenwu Village!" The head of the Wu clan straightened his face, and said, "The Shenwu Village is located in a deep mountain to the north, and the people there are almost isolated from the world. It has been thousands of years!"
"Then none of them came out?"
"Not really." Patriarch Wu took a sip of tea, "This matter has to start thousands of years ago. Our Miao people first existed in the Yanhuang Chiyou period, and then passed down from generation to generation until about a thousand years ago. When times were troubled, our Miao people The situation is weak, and it is difficult to survive in the cracks of the troubled times.
Later, we met a great wizard who was very powerful at the time. Because the age is too long, the details are no longer available. In short, the great wizard protected our Miao people and allowed the whole tribe to survive in the troubled times.
Later, it was said that the great wizard was beheaded by the Lord of Troubled Times for causing harm to the common people. From then on, no one dared to mention the great wizard again.
The clan only dared to worship secretly, but one of the members of the Shui tribe was a diehard of the great wizard. They believed that the great wizard was killed by others, and they stubbornly wanted to resurrect the great wizard by offering sacrifices. .
The conflicts between the two sides intensified, and the last branch moved to the birthplace of the great wizard, calling itself the village of gods and witches. "
Patriarch Wu sighed: "After thousands of years, our Miao people have been influenced by Han culture, and some ancient things have gradually faded from generation to generation. On the contrary, Shenwu Village has preserved those things exactly. .”
The general idea is that the Miao people outside Shenwu Village are gradually being Sinicized, but Shenwu Village still looks like ancient aborigines.
Shen Mingjiao asked: "The great wizard mentioned by the team leader is called Yaoguang?"
"Yes, but because of the age, many books and silks from those years were burned. These things were passed down from generation to generation by the old man. Madam just listened to it as a story." Apparently he didn't believe it himself. .
"In short, the people in Shenwu Village are very stubborn and ignorant. They don't allow outsiders to enter easily, and there is a lot of mist and miasma outside the village."
Shen Mingjiao: "Then they really sacrificed the living!"
Mentioning this, the Patriarch Wu's face was very ugly: "That's not true, but it's about the same. About twenty years ago, some saint in the Shenwu village escaped, and was rescued by a young man in our village.
At that time, the two sides had a very unpleasant quarrel, and the saint was not a good person, so she indirectly killed the boy who saved her. At that time, we accidentally learned from the population of Shenwu Village that
The so-called living sacrifice is to throw the chosen girl in a cave full of poisonous weeds and stones and let her fend for herself. Those people call it a forbidden place. It is said that those who are thrown into it will go mad and die within two hours. "
After the patriarch Wu finished speaking, he repeatedly lamented the crime.
Shen Mingjiao was stunned after hearing this. This living sacrifice sounded absurd, but she keenly grasped several key points.
In the cave with poisonous weeds, people who enter will go mad and die, and there is also the legendary Yaoguang wizard.
These pieces of information were connected in series, and the only thing she was sure of was that those stones should have come from there.
And those Gu worms refined by Qingyao,
